Sharon Mitchell: Self

Quotes 

• Sharon Mitchell : The one thing that I've noticed about guys is that they come in very sweet, very open, very tentative and almost tender at times, and then as you see them film after film after film you kind of see that glazed look go over, and it's the look, it's the change, and you suddenly realise that you too could be a piece of meat, a hole in the wall or whatever fantasy is inside their head.

  Sharon Mitchell : Yeah. Yeah, sure, it's gotta screw you up. I mean,

  [laughs]

  Louis Theroux : You seem OK, you seem pretty well-adjusted.

  Sharon Mitchell : Well, yeah, um, yeah, but it took me a long time to kick the heroin.
